(57) A yarn feeder for a circular knitting machine having stripers (53) receiving the
yarns (14) from the machine creel, each yarn (14) following a set route through a
plurality of fixed eyelets (13, 15, 16) and moving eyelets (18, 19, 20) located on
a pivotable arm (17). The pivoting of the arm (17) causes the length of yarn (14)
comprised between the eyelets (18, 15) to move between two rollers (4, 6) the rotation
of which pulls the yarn (14) along from the creel and delivers it to the needle (54)
which previously, while the arm (17) was being caused to pivot, received the loop
of yarn contained between two moving eyelets (19, 20) and a fixed eyelet (16).
